I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let 'em outI'm not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though goin' on with you gon' still upset me
There are days every now and again I pretend
I'm okay but that's not what gets meWhat hurts the most was bein' so close
And havin' so much to say and watchin' you walk away
And never knowin' what could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you is what I was tryin' to doIt's hard to deal with the pain of losin' you everywhere I go
I'm doing it
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm aloneStill harder gettin' up, gettin' dressed, livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade, give away all the words that I saved
In my heart that I left unspokenWhat hurts the most was bein' so close
And havin' so much to say and watchin' you walk away
And never knowin' what could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you is what I was tryin' to do, oh, ohWhat hurts the most was bein' so close
And havin' so much to say and watchin' you walk away
And never knowin' what could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you is what I was tryin' to do
Not seeing that lovin' you, that's what I was tryin' to do, oh
